Post tech scams
it never sounded plausible, what the fuck were people thinkingwere they just too pussy to say a woman was full of shit?
>>106509823tf am I seeing?
>>106509823Is it a scam? As far as I'm aware the price was high because it was beautifully overengineered.
>>106509901You could just squeeze the (expensive) bag with your hands.
>>106509896fruit juice has been a long running health food scam in the US for a long time, coming and going in cycles, this product was a VC money dumpster fire selling overpriced packs of fruit juice pulp that would get fresh squeezed by the machine.The machine itself was sold at a massive loss despite costing $500 because it was heavily overengineered for the task of pressing against a plastic bag of juice.It also required wifi connectivity so it could scan the bags as a form of DRM (they claimed it was to enforce expiration dates)It later turned out the bags could be squeezed by hand, and also that there was no pulp, the juice was already extracted, the bags contained only juice.
>>106509823Ai.
>>106509844qrd? Looks fascinating and attractive.>>106509947Luddite
>>106509910Why is his hand so small and red?
>>106509823
>>106510061TWO MORE WEEKS
>>106510022I'm always amused when people who don't know anything about data structures, search engines and compilers nor do they know anything about how hardware works try to sound like they know anything about AI.
>>106509901>Expensive machine that literally just squeezes the pack.>Expensive, proprietary juice packs.>Obviously because it's pre-packaged juice, it's nowhere to be fresh and you can't guarantee that producers were not adding some crap to it.>Must be connected 24/7 to the Internet or will literally not work. Obviously data about when and what kind of juice you consume will be collected by Jews or some shit.>"NOOOO, YOUR JUICERO JUICE IS EXPIRED BY HALF A DAY! WE CANNOT SQUEEZE IT, PLEASE BUY NEW JUICE!"It was basically your typical Smart Shit but with multiple additional levels of idiocy on top of it. Obviously it failed because finding enough genuine lobotomites to sell them this product was not possible.

>>106510124https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o2e1x5IaO7k Worth noting that it's like the entire niche of shitty products that are directed directly to the most retarded of consumers. Because obviously I need a piece of shit connected to the Internet 24/7 for fuck know what to tell me how much salt I am allowed to use.
>>106510146"Women safety" app as a selling point is the most Indian shit
>>106510022A luddite is a "machine breaker", not someone who dislikes muh hecking AIZoom away now
>>106510363You are a potential machine breaker in-making, though. Wish I could pre-emptively imprison you under the Frame-Breaking Act of 1812.
>>106510183I genuinely can not tell if that is a parody or not
>>106510133Is that a rendering? Otherwise glad to see they cleaned it up a bit. Doesn't look like a trashcan anymore.
>>106509901The device was sold below cost because the goal was always to make money with subscriptions for their weird DRMd fruit satchels.
>>106509823Just everything about SpaceX is a pile of dunk.
>>106509893Rich people can be simps too.
>>106510558Just like Playstation and Xbox.
>>106509917Yeah, but you can say that about any juicer.
>>106510707juicers generally take real fruit and extract real juice from the shredded pulp remains
>>106510146QRD, anon?
>>106510648Mr. President?
>>106510951https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedom_251
>>106509917>squeeze the (expensive) bagyou could just squeeze the fruit? you dont even need a bag. you could just go to the store and buy fruit.the idea that it failed from the expose sepcifically showing squeezing the bag was retarded. maybe it did, but if it did then the people who were into it were even more retarded.
This scam Mac Mini hub doesn’t support SAT SSD cards. They tried to hide the facts but were caught: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/255968990?sortBy=rankThey didn’t protect the fans from dust, no external power so you wasting process on it. Limited slots for USB-A.
>>106510707That's not how a juicer works.That's how the juice dispenser at your college lunch hall works, but that's not a juicer. A juicer grinds fruit and vegetables to extract juice and pulp.

>>106512585>anon mad that he doesn't know how to make money with fartcoins
>>106512554>uninstalls half of gnome libs and makes it unbootable
>>106510133>>106510648I wish they’d stop pushing for ship reuse so hard this early in the program. Get a mvp of the ship going first. drop the header tanks, heat shielding, and flaps, add a lightweight fairing and you’ve got a Saturn V with a reusable booster.but no they have to keep redesigning it because the perfect is the enemy of the good.

>>106509893what's this?
>>106510648why does spacex cause yuropoor to seethe so much? Seriously I don't understand
>>106515065Lady claimed her company invented some magical bio chip that could detect hundreds of diseases from a drop of blood.Investors poured billions into her company but it was all a scam.I think she ended up in jail.
>>106509894>>106510133>>106510557>>106510604>>106510648It's fucking insane that Musk isn't in jail. Literally a lifelong scammer yet the richest man in the world. All jewish systems must collapse.
>>106515093Where is the mars base?
>>106515093Because all of that was made by Asian and Indian immigrants. So stop taking credit, whitey,
I don't know if this count as tech or is audio wiccan shit
>>106509823That's not a scam, a jew made a lot of good money with that. You expect the søyim to do their own squeezing?
>>106515187I think that's more a troll than a scam.Making audiophiles put turds on their overpriced equipment, it's pretty funny.
>>106515131The law doesn't apply to fraudsters as long as line goes up.When line goes down, Musk will be found guilty of dozens of accounts of securities fraud, accounting fraud etc.
>>106509823> Over $9m in debt> less than $20k revenue after 7 years> executive team has lavish "company retreats" to Hawaii on their social media page> all their money comes from "investment" on WeFunder where they've scammed retards out of over $6m where they offer SAFEs in return (not even real equity)> they partnered with a radio show host who was notoriously off the air half the week due to being a chronic drunk ( and a 0.35 BAC arrest on record). All the guy did was shill the app> they're now partnered with some scam artist in Sacramento who is a known con artist being investigated by the DOJ> SEC filings of this app have the government calling them retarded, I government terms> If you say anything that isn't outright praise about them on Reddit on their radio hosts or their subreddit, their staff will cyberstalk you and send you a threatening letter from their lawyer for "defaming" them.
>>106510077>you will never be a golden pulp fiction classic hero adventuring the skies with your merry bandIt's. Just. Not. Fair.
>>106510183Sometimes I feel ill from cringeThis is one of them

>>106515093You’re wasting fuel to hover around, that fuel could have been used for something else. Why are you Americans so stupid.
>>106515093Awesome, you can strap them to your mobility scooters and take a trip to the moon (no oxygen)
>>106510077Damn anyone else wanna fuck that hybrid blimp in the ass?
Biggest German tech scam in recent history. They wanted to become paypal 2.0 but basically their finances were completely made up.The founder is now wanted and currently hiding in Russia disguised as an orthodox priest (I'm not making this up)
>>106509823How did this fail yet shit like this succeeded?Are coffeebros just fine with being scammed?Well I guess given Starschmucks is so popular, the answer would be Yes.
>>106516019It takes much more effort to create specific coffee types like latte macchiatos
>>106509823Who the fuck even drinks pureed vegetables like a fucking baby fr

>>106515187I feel like posting audiophile stuff is cheating, those freaks are completely gone.
>>106515605The CEO is a known schizoposter on Reddit. All his inane ramblings get down voted to oblivion and they even had to private one of the subreddits after he sperged out too hard.https://www.reddit.com/user/Sirclesapp/
>>106515187Audiophile Rocks is from Patrick82 of the early Head-Fi days. He’s been trolling the community for at least 20 years and I hope he never stops. Pic related.
>>106515336>they're now partnered with some scam artist in Sacramento who is a known con artist being investigated by the DOJI went to highschool with this guy. I always thought Zayn Silmi was going to go into comedy, that what he did at school talent shows and always told people he wanted to do. Ended up opening a coffee shop soon after hs and I lost touch with himReading the Reddit threads on him, I guess he achieved his dream. People are laughing at him
>>106516685Oh shit you know that guy? I don't know him but I do know some do of the other people involved.Apparently he's just a con artist. He made some business called "The People of Sacramento" that won some city grant to make a video which never produced. City can't get their money back. Ran a clothing store by the same name which looked like he robbed a Goodwill and did a 3x on prices. That went under due to terrible customer service.He apparently rented some preferred parking spot at a mall and parked a car there, faking a giveaway to harvest data. It alluded the mall was involved. They had no idea about it.He ran an unauthorized animal shelter non profit that the DOJ is apparently investigating him for.Last I knew he's shitting up Sacramento with this Sircles thing. He's upset that some woman is doing an expose on him and he's filed a restraining order but also has apparently inappropriately texted her children and fucks around outside of her husband's work and has alluded that if they try something, he "has a ccw permit".The guy is a fucking loon and it says a lot that these Sircles faggots partner with him. Especially the Sircles CEO guy, who has a lot of alleged eccentric and possibly illegal behavior.
>>106516019K-cups are inexpensive in comparison and don't require Internet access.The convenience of getting hot coffee is far more appealing than getting cold pressed wellness juices.The real comparison would be if Keurig machines were just squishing bags full of stale ass brewed coffee that you could squeeze yourself.
>>106509893Rich people who stole their money got scammed.Give this chick a medal.
>>106510077Send it over China an see how many femtoseconds it takes them to annihilate it when it’s within distant early warning radar range
>>106511596THEN THERE IS HOPE ONE DAY ONE DAY
>>106509893She almost ended Walgreens whole career on a promise and a fake voice. Everyone wanted a 19 year old female Steve Jobs to storm Silicon Valley and they all got burned. She also got pregnant to try to avoid jail time. I hope she dies soon
>>106515096She's in Club Fed with Ghislaine Maxwell
>>106516784Yeah I know him. In high school he was pretty funny and wanted to be a comedian. He always did this skit about 9/11 because his name was Hussein and it was still a big thing at that time (mid 2000s)Used to go to his house and play Halo 1. On his Xbox. I remember his parents were pretty loaded. At some point after high school he bought a coffee shop in elk Grove But I guess now he's claiming he founded it. But I totally remember it was there already and it was kind of the local high school hangout spot
>>106516784I actually saw the clothing shop that apparently this dude owns and embezzles money from last time I was in Sacramento. I had no idea it was his, it doesn't even look like a charity. It looks like some sort of trendy secondhand clothing shop or something in a nice area of midtown
>>106515718Oh I remember reading about this. Crazy shit.
>>106515131In jail for what? Delivering 90% of a product?>>106515145He’s launching and catching the largest rocket ever built and that’s not good enough for you either? You were a falcon 9 doubter weren’t you?

>>106517383Good. The bitch was a psychopath.
>>106509823if they marketed it as a juice subscription with an optional dispenser, people probably would have ate it up.
>>106517479Zuckerberg looking (l)ass
>>106517437Musks probably going down in the history books as the 21st century Edison.People are just salty
>>106515693lol go shut down your coal plants to end up quadrupling the price of energy eurocuck. keep saving the planet while mohamed fucks your daughter
>>106517510Actually, yes. Do away with the overengineered presser, sell the juice packets.Like juice boxes or Capri Sun for the health conscious people. Easy profit.
>>106517396The only way that clothing shop made sense is if he was embezzling.That wasn't the non-profit/charity that I understand. The animal shelter was something else I think.Either way, guy seems like either a retard or just a bad spirited conman.>>106517389>At some point after high school he bought a coffee shop in elk Grove But I guess now he's claiming he founded it.He claims he founded Sircles too. He wasn't a part of it early on at all. He's apparently just a "social media manager"
>>106517837Posting from chinkstores is just cheating.
>>106515189nobody made any money off it lmao. They massively overengineered their hardware, sold them at a loss (but still well above what they should have cost), which were ultimately rendered useless when the company went out of business.
>>106510183>directed directly toWere you trying to say "directly marketed to..."?
>>106509893God I want her to rape me while she tells me how much I disgust her with her unnaturally low voice.
>>106517799But then how would they suck up the VC money selling an IoT device?That's the only reason this piece of shit got built.
>>106510183There's just no way this was a real thing.
>>106510998Phoneposting should be a bannable offense on all boards.
>>106515713yes me, i do.
>>106512617Anon, the reusability is the only thing that makes it potentially viable as a Mars-capable spacecraft. After sending one up into orbit, you need to gas it up with like 85 more launches for it to have enough fuel for a Mars mission, or nearly 300 to top it off.
>>106516019There's a difference between brewing a cup of coffee and squeezing juice out of a bag of juice.
>>106515158white americans allowing immigrants to make them money is as american as apple pie and still american anon
>>106509869arent they driving around right now?
>>106515273The worst he will ever face is public humiliation. 4 trillion dollars even cut by 99% is enough for him to never be harmed by consequences
>>106515336Damn, I heard these guys on the radio telling ordinary people in town to invest in shares, multiple rounds even.Insane that it's 20k revenue when I'm pretty sure that's how much they were charging as a minimum investment.
>>106509823no wonder numales have no fucking jawline
>>106518397The Sircles CEO is a egomaniacal schizo. It's not clear to me that he actually knows he's scamming people but he's a massive retard. Secondhand info I've gotten suggests that he apparently has never had a business plan. When he was asked once about a business plan, he pointed to some kid in the office and said "he's good with computers" and that's the closest thing he's ever had.Same guy apparently has a tendency to threaten employees.All the same people who do Sircles are also Tech2U owners. Apparently Tech2U is morally bankrupt as a company. Another ex employee told me once they had him do the same service call to a dementia patient like 6 times because the guy couldn't remember and kept calling. When he spoke up about it, they told him it wasn't his place to have an opinion
>>106518397Oh also. Same CEO allegedly would bring suspiciously young girls into the office on rotation. Like changed on a weekly basis type thing. Same guy was accused of having a coke addiction. There's something super suspicious about that whole sect.
>>106515187ok. now hear me out...Gamer Girl Obscurum.
>>106510954Just buy my phone and fuck off.
>>106510077If I ever win a Money Lottery or the internet Fame Lottery or just end up having a lot of money somehow, someday, I'm going to build my own Akron or Macron or Hindenburg or Graf Zeppelin or whatever the fuck and I'll just live on the airship and drive it around to wherever I please, and obviously it will be operating with helium rather than hydrogen.More realistically, perhaps someday I'll be able to create a smaller version that produces just enough lift that I can fly myself around in it, perhaps with little electric motors to run the props... like an Airship version of those small trains that you can ride and they function like real trains.
>>106519256This was literally the fourth post in the thread.
>>106517378>She also got pregnant to try to avoid jail timedon't tell me you wouldn't impregnate her too
>>106514511>>106517987Sorry, I have a bad flu and my brain is shitting itself. Either way, have one more to collection. This time from Dough Evans, the same faggot that tried to sell people Juicero: https://youtu.be/d7aOwLWuzH4
>>106519619Doug* Fuck, kill me!
>>106519619https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oI-Ye8SP708 sorry for Vice video but here's more from this faggot. This guy is a veteran of scams targeting low-IQ retards.
I'm impressed they've been able to keep the hype going for well over a decade.
>>106519643Also I cannot find it right now, but I think it's the same Doug Evans that got fined and jailed for some minority contracting fraud and was involved in some landscaping bullshit that also ended with almost million of dollars in fines for him.How the fuck someone can be such a failure and still have seemingly bottomless pockets full of cash?
>>106517383would
